Pearl Lustre Mica Powder - Orange Red is a synthetic pearlescent mica powder used to add a warm orange-red shimmer to soaps, makeup, bath bombs, and other cosmetic formulations. It is ideal for products where you want decorative colour with glow and dimension rather than a flat matte finish. It can tint water, but it is not water soluble, so proper dispersion is important for the best result. This shade works particularly well in sunset, spice, festive, and warm floral colour palettes.

♡ Why we love it: Orange Red has a rich glowing character that adds warmth and vibrancy to a formula. It is a lovely choice for makers who enjoy bold colour stories, and it blends beautifully with golds, reds, peaches, and bronzes for custom warm-toned effects.
